The Counter would have been impossible without the efforts of a great
many people.
<br>
In particular, we would like to thank:
<ul>
<li>Patrick Reijnen, who designed the first Web page
<li>Gramo (Ricardo Naranjo_Faccini) from Colombia, who designed the
Linux Counter Logo, based on the "Tux" logo by Larry Ewing
<li>Denis Havlik, who organized the Logo Contest, among his many other
contributions to the project
<li>Hans Kwint, who created the 2005 version of the "estimating the number of Linux users" page
<li>The <a href="organization/board.php">Board</a> of the
Organization
<li>The <a href="reports/maintainers.php">Country Managers</a>
<li>(lots of more people belong here!)
</ul>

<h2>Hard support</h2>
We have been supported in real, hard things by:
<ul>
<li>UNINETT, who permitted me to run the initial counter on their
hardware and bandwidth until the end of 1997, and has provided the bandwidth
again from August 2000
<li>EDB Maxware, who provided machine power from Jan-98 until October
1999, and network connectivity from Jan-98 until August 2000
<li>Compaq, who provided the <a href="new-machine.php">new Alpha
server</a> that is the home of the counter since October 1999
<li>Linpro, who provided the Pentium PC that now serves as the Counter's database backend
</ul>

<h2>Software support</h2>
Unlike the hardware, most of these contributors don't know they've
contributed. But they deserve to be listed!
<p>
The software used is
<ul>
<li>Linux (of course)
<li>Apache
<li>MySQL
<li>Perl (including too many CPAN modules to list)
</ul>
